These two little cuties have been so great to get to know over the last few months. For the time being, the older of the two seems more entertained by his cousin than the younger. What one sees as affection, the other takes in as shock and surprise.

In what I’ve been told is a rarity, both couples took off for afternoons alone, while the Grandparents stepped into their role as the ever-available sitter.

This past year has been pretty crazy for my brother and sister-in-law. It is so great and brings us much peace to see them finally together as a family!

This January our whole family made the trek north to our childhood home of Marquette, MI on the shores of Lake Superior to witness Adri and Luke commit to each other in marriage. It was a beautiful weekend as a family – celebrating their marriage, enjoying each other’s company, and hanging out with my two super cute nephews. Of course they had to steal the show with their impromptu courtroom discussion.

We kept things pretty simple, but I had to capture some of the day. Here it is.
